Preface
Plankton play an indispensable role in maintaining ocean life but are increasingly threatened by multiple natural and human-induced changes to the environment. This advanced textbook explores the intriguing marine plankton communities of the Southwestern Atlantic region along the coast of southern South America. This marine system encompasses low-to-high latitude environments framed by a complex hydrographic scenery, confronting the local plankton communities with the growing challenge of global climate change and other human-induced environmental transformations. This vast and iconic regi
